I’ve just updated the 8-Bit Software Magazine Online Conversion to include Issue 66. I have also tweaked the navigation to be clearer and enable navigating from an item to its parent magazine instead of just up to the index.
I’ve just updated the 8-Bit Software Magazine Online Conversion to include Issue 65. Another update is a fix for the mapping of fraction characters and pipes in the converted Mode 7 pages.
I’d like to introduce a new project - the 8-Bit Software Magazine Online Conversion.
8-Bit Software was a public domain software library and floppy disk based magazine for the owners of BBC computers, which was published between 1990 and 1998, and contains a wealth of information about BBC computers.
The magazine disk images are available elsewhere online, but to read the disk images, a BBC emulator (or BBC) is required. This makes them difficult to access easily, and searching for obscure BBC information contained in the magazines doesn’t usually turn up any information from search engines.
I’ve currently only converted a single issue: (the fairly arbitarily chosen) Issue 64, but as the conversion is fully automated, I should be able to add more issues as time and enthusiasm permit.
So, check it out, and also feel free to let me know if you find any bugs, or if you’ve got any comments.
